Spoilt vs Spoiled

Hi, I am wanting to create a cake decorating business and call it 'Spoilt Tart' but want to confirm its use against the word 'spoiled'. Please help me. Thank you. Rebekah

They both mean the same thing. S p oilt is used in British English and Spoiled in American English. It seems a strange name for the business.

  • I assume that you want to use "spoil" in the sense of treating someone very or too well but it could easily be taken to mean ruined.
